If Elz is procrastinating, then we (the masses) can only suspect that he has
concerns over his brief for the formation of a governing body".

"If auDA develops as it is, or was, planned to develop - as an organisation
with a fairly large membership, from all interested sectors of the
community - and manages to deduce reasonable outcomes from among all the
opinions presented to it, I don't see any reason why it could not be an
effective manager of the .au domain name space," (Elz) said.

"What is important is to make sure that auDA, if it is to take over that
role, is not captured by any single interest group, and that it is also not
strangled, before it gets really established."

Sadly, even some of the postings to this list over recent months are not
suggestive that the brief has been met - that there is still a considerable
amount of work to be done.
